The Horizont (sometimes marked in cyrillic: Горизонт) is a Russian panoramic camera, similar to the Noblex. Some 49,849 were made by KMZ from 1967-1973[1]. The rotating 28mm f2.8 lens took 24x58mm frames on 35mm film, giving a 120° view. The viewfinder - which includes a circular spirit level[2] - is fitted into a vertical shoe on the front, to sit on top of the camera on the user's left.
Horizon Revue and Global-H seems to be an alternative names for the Horizont. The Horizon 202 is a later, updated version with an ABS body.
